HATFIELD, Pa. (AP) — Police in suburban Philadelphia say they've arrested two people and are searching for a third after a man who thought he was meeting them to buy a car was instead shocked with a stun gun, beaten and robbed.

The Intelligencer reports (http://bit.ly/YxvTiQ) the victim met with the three Sunday in Hatfield Township, thinking he was going to buy a car. Police say that when he got in the back seat for a test ride, he was shocked with a stun gun, punched and robbed.

He was then dumped from the car and police say the suspects fled.

Two suspects, 20-year-old Pottstown resident Jeremiah White and 20-year-old North Wales resident Sarah Nodecker were in custody. It couldn't immediately be determined if they had attorneys.
